Episode Synopsis

Good morning, this is your Bellingham Local Frequency for Sunday, December 7. It is a blustery one across Whatcom County as another round of wind and rain moves through. Emergency Management has a coastal flood advisory in effect for our shorelines this morning, tied to higher king tides and strong onshore winds, along with a broader flood watch on Western Washington rivers through the week. That means low-lying coastal spots like the waterfront and Lummi shoreline could see minor saltwater on roads around high tide, and saturated hillsides will be more prone to slides as storms stack up. If you are out near the bay or driving the usual puddle-prone routes, give yourself extra time and watch for standing water and debris. Boaters are also under a small craft advisory in the inland waters, with choppy seas and gusty winds expected. If you are looking for things to do indoors today, downtown and Fairhaven have you covered. The Port of Bellingham’s Holiday Port Festival continues at the Bellingham Cruise Terminal, with the gingerbread house contest on display and family-friendly performances and activities filling the building. It is one of the big community traditions of the season and a great excuse to warm up with a cocoa while you watch the weather roll across the bay. Art lovers can swing by the Whatcom Museum for a midday program, with events scheduled from noon to 2 p.m. that are perfect for a calm cultural break between errands. Over at New Prospect Theatre on Prospect Street, tonight’s performance continues their current run, giving you a cozy, intimate spot to support local theater. If hands-on creativity is more your speed, Bellingham Makerspace at Bellis Fair has an afternoon woodworking coaching session from 2 to 5 p.m., where members can get one-on-one help on projects and new makers can learn their way around the tools. As evening settles in, you can wrap your day in live music and community. Aslan Brewing’s Depot location on North State hosts its regular Sunday night session from 7 to 10 p.m., while other venues around town, from Fairhaven to the Arts District, round out the night with performances, comedy, and student art shows. This has been Bellingham Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.For more http://www.quietplease.aiGet the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI
